Back on a Monster
I sold my S4r back in 2010, since then have owned a rr Fireblade, Husqvarna SM, ZX9r, CB600 Hornet and most recently a ZZR1400.
Now, due to a new job being just 5 miles away I decided I could get something a little exotic and keep the miles off it.. so I have bought a monster.. a S4r.. yep step back 10yrs.. its a 2005, with 12k miles. rode it home yesterday.. |

.....What do you mean 'and keep the miles off'? Surely you mean 'put the miles on!!!' Motorcycles are there to be ridden and as a previous owner of one, Ducatis (more than most) don't like being laid up for long.

Amen. Apart from cleaning white wheels are ok. However those Pink bolts are really tacky.

I have the original bolts. Red annodised not my fave. On standard exhaust as well, though chipped and airbox opened. Need to decide what exhaust I prefer, the udder is removed and don't want too loud, but i think I prefer a single can to the 2 shooter type pipes..

Full Termi is probably the best option; underseat twin cans one each side.
